A lead image and print materials for Visible Fictions' new production are on their way. The horrific visual was rendered via Poser and Bryce3D before being treated to the usual post-production nonsense. Typeface is FG Ellinor from Linotype.
Following the success of the Roundhouse Ditto event, small-media-large has been invited to contribute an audio-visual piece as part of Ditto's slot at this year's Latitude Festival. Two works on the themes of 'enchantment' and 'disenchantment' are being prepared comprising films by Lex Lamb and Sophie Stubbs, music by Ventilator and performance at the event by Lex Lamb with a vocal by Ian McKenzie. youtube links previewing the piece will become available over the next few weeks...
Balfour Kilpatrick's ground-breaking 'zero harm' initiative to eliminate workplace accidents has its own bold identity, reflected in s-m-l layouts for the forthcoming BK Matters magazine.
The official small-media-large piece for the first Ditto event at the Camden Roundhouse was a thrill, and apparently a big success. The film and performance (based on a text from Kurt Vonnegut's 'Slaughterhouse 5' was watched by an audience of thousands online, as well as the select delegation present at the venue itself. Thanks are very much due to Mike Wilson and Phillip Long for involving s-m-l in the whole project, and to Ian McKenzie for delivering such a sterling vocal performance on the night.
...and following on, a crazily ambitious programme/wallchart for Wee Stories accompanying the next outing of their 'One Giant Leap' show, critically acclaimed in last years' National Theatre of Scotland outing. Religion vs. Science in about 200 key dates from the Big Bang to the present day. Seen in proportion to a Saturn V rocket, naturally.
small-media-large has enjoyed a long and fascinating relationship with the mighty Wee Stories, and their new site represents the latest stage of that relationship. The design elements were sliced roughly out of sheets of white paper, scanned, then reassembled as part of a project whose content is being entirely managed by the company. The site will allow WS to maintain a database of venues integrated to a live events calendar, as well as Google Maps, a mailing list management system and news feed... expect this one to grow and grow.
Representing the advanced progression from levels A-C, this CD-ROM presents the last two stages of the primary science curriculum in complex, intuitive interactivity over 74 different exercises for optional Smartboard and Promethean interfaces. Illustrated by the wonderful Vicki Gausden and designed, programmed and packaged by small-media-large, the course will be reaching Gaelic schools very soon. Project commissioned and managed and authored by Stòrlann Nàiseanta na Gàidhlig.
